Progress

Yesterday was supposed to be my first night in the apartment. Bf dropped me off before work, kissed me and said he'd just go straight home after work and then said "I'll see you in the morning". 

It had been an emotionally stressful day and I was on the verge of tears all morning and that just pushed me over the edge. He must have sensed it. I didn't cry until he was gone mind you. I cried for a bit but he called me shortly after and asked me if I wanted him to pick me up so we could go sleep at his place. 

After he finished work he called me again to see what I'd decided and I kinda left it up to him because I didn't want to impose. He picked me up and we slept at his place. It felt right. And tonight we're sleeping here. It just feels like the right thing to do for now. I'm sure we'll start sleeping separately... Soon enough. I don't have a tv so the bf can't catch the news or his favorite tv shows here. 

I've met my neighbours, they're all nice. All kinda cool. I like the girl who lives above me. She just moved in too and she seems really friendly. We talked quite a bit in the stairwell today. 

I've managed to organize most of my things. The bedroom is almost set. The living room was a disaster until I moved all the boxes into a corner today. I don't have a massive bookcase anymore so I'm hunting for one. In the meantime I've got boxes and boxes of books. The sofa bed gets here on Friday. I'm excited about that since I got it custom made. 

I'm proud of how it's coming along. I've done a lot of refurbing of old furniture and market finds. It's exhausting but I like the final result.

The basement with my studio space is starting to come along but I still have a ton of stuff to do in there. It won't be ready to work in until after Easter, I'm sure. I still need to get a work table and finish painting some shelving. 

Back to unpacking... Tomorrow is a work day.....
